What Does It mean?
>>>"I missed the DEC 29th filing(request for extension), the preliminary(YR SEPT 30) numbers are not so good. Has everyone seen this on EDGAR. "Operating income for the YEAR of 1.4 million(2.1 after 9 months) which means after everything is taken out we are looking at a solid loss. Revenues came in at 62 mil for the year. I can't believe this slipped by..." I'd like your take on this previous post...<<< *********************************************** Skane:
I don't think anything slipped by...
A week ago I posted that there would be an extension filed... This was just posted to Edgar now...
Upon reviewing the preliminary numbers, we can see positive operating income vs negative operating income last year...
On a Qtrly basis, it looks like they dumped all their expenses in the last Qtr to clear the way for 1998... Implicit in the numbers is a loss of about one million dollars for the Qtr...
Apparently... These statements only reflect two of the six acquisitions... So, well see the full effect of these additions in the next Qtr...
Now, we can see why the stock had that rollercoaster ride last week... The good news is the stock price bounced off the lows... Since this news is now history, stock price activity will most likely begin anticipating the first Qtr of 1998...
